In managing Meniere's disease, a low-salt diet is, along with medication, the most important basic lifestyle treatment, because sodium draws water into the body and raises endolymphatic pressure. The American Academy of Otolaryngology recommends limiting daily sodium intake to 1,500-2,000 mg or less. Foods to avoid include processed meats, canned foods, fast food, salty snacks, salted seafood, soybean-paste stew, and instant noodles. Conversely, it is good to drink 1.5-2 L of water steadily throughout the day to keep endolymphatic pressure stable. Caffeine and alcohol can also fluctuate inner ear blood flow and trigger attacks, so they should be limited.
